Hi!

Chapter 1 is up, see it here:

This chapter started out more than 3 months ago (wow!) as a follow-up to this
post and its replies:
http://www.lugnet.com/castle/?n=2275
I felt this was a great place to start, Castle World was just being formed at
the time and what could be better than a mutual storyline? Craig shared this
feeling. Eventually, however, we decided that I'll write the chapter by
myself, all thwe while including a visiting character from Craig's realm.
Periodically, I sent him versions of the chapter and he suggested, commented,
and was very helpful.
Thus far part 1. I would've published it a long time ago, but it wasn't
actually complete 'til last week - and by that time I had decided to attach it
to part 2.

A month or so ago, as part of a trade, Matthew Wilkins sent me a character of
his by snail-mail, with her description. We talked - a lot! - and together, we
wrote the second part of the chapter. He also reviewed and revised everyuthing
I had written until that point.

About the method of travel that the visitor from Craigs realm used - that's an
RDP. Stands for Revolving Door Portal. It was first introduced by Craig on
this post:
http://www.lugnet.com/castle/?n=2272

Also, if you haven't recognized the visitor yet, feel free to check out
Craig's homepage...

Any constructive criticism would be extremely welcome!

I had a great time writing this, I just hope my next chapter won't take as
long to write... :-)

I'm oh-so-grateful to Craig and Matthew, your support got me a long way!

I think that's all. Phew!

HAND, and PLMKWYT,
-Shiri

Thats amazing! Your charaters are what really struck me... They all have their own sense of individulatily, none of them can be identified as a generic person. Your Inn is really cool looking to, is that the on with the removable roof? Good job! (...) (25 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

Wonderful Job, Shiri! I really enjoy how much personality your characters have. I like the camera angles used for the pictures of the sentry guard chasing URU (the creature). The story was great, nice job of introducing some of your characters, (...) (25 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

Hey Shiri, great job on Chapter 1! I like the robe on Scar, it looks better than just one on the back. That's pretty cool that you have characters from other people's realms integrated into your stories. It really makes you think more about what is (...)

Shiri, You've done a fanastic job (as usual)! I thoroughly enjoy seeing the creativity you constantly show in your creations ans now your wonderful storyline. Keep up the great work. (25 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) I really liked your story so far. Great photography too. I was a little puzzled as to who was saying what in the following snippet: The creature turns around to see a sentry guard. “What is it?” it asks the guard. “Who are you,” repeats the (...)

Looks good, you did a nice job on the scenery. You said the next chapter would take a while, but do you have any idea when it will be up? Rob (...) (25 years ago, 17-May-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) Hmm, has anyone tried a light saber hilt with an trans-orange flame in it? That would be a nice looking weapon. Another would be the light saber hilt with a trans-orange chainsaw blade. Frank (25 years ago, 20-May-00, to lugnet.castle)
